9 tips on how to wear a shirt dress

A shirt dress is probably one of the most versatile dresses you can have in your closet.

The good news is that this classic piece is also trendy now, which means you will find many options in the stores right now.

Here is what you should know about shirt dresses:

1. IT'S FOR ANY OCCASION!

You can easily dress it up or down by changing accessories. 

2. IT'S OFFICE APPROPRIATE!

It's perfect to work from home because it's extremely comfortable. Besides, it's a button-down shirt on the top, so it's 100% Zoom approved!

3. STILL WANT SOME PANTS? NO PROBLEM.

You can wear it as a shirt, just pair it with some beautiful pants. It's pretty modern!

4. IT CAN BE WORN AS A THIRD PIECE. 

You can wear it as a third piece if it has buttons all over - from top to bottom (PS: If it has buttons up until your waist, just like a vintage piece, it won't work). 

A third piece is how we call a jacket, a blazer, or a cardigan, for example. They are amazing because they immediately elevate your outfit.

You can unbutton your shirt dress over a T-shirt and pants. It looks stylish and also creates two vertical lines that elongate your figure. If your shirt dress comes with a fabric belt, you can tie it on the back. 

5. MAKE IT COOL BY ADDING ACCESSORIES

You can enhance your outfit by wearing a leather belt or other accessories that add personality. If you don't have a nice belt, you can put on a scarf in a different print. Get inspired with the photos below

6. GOING ON A VACATION?

It's an excellent dress to pack for a trip. It's a great day dress, but also very useful to go out at night, as a chic cover-up. 

7. WHAT'S THE IDEAL LENGTH?

A good length for a shirt dress now would be midi, so you can wear it in different ways. 

8. WHAT'S THE BEST THE FABRIC?

A 100% cotton dress is pleasant for warm days, but also most of the year.  

8. COME RAIN OR COME SHINE

Once Fall comes and everything gets cold again, you can style your shirt dress with your favorite turtleneck, pants, and boots. Why not?
